Charles Hoskinson, Cardano Creator said his team is taking the torch that’s been lit by Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto in order to bring the crypto industry to new heights.

He said in a UToday interview that IOHK and the team of researchers are now working on creating the future of crypto.

He continued and explained, “We solved the proof of stake problem. We designed significantly better programming languages. We extended the UTXO model, approved by simulation with a special type of state machine…”
